My 2013 cosplay year with the added bonus of the fried chicken incident that led to the article I wrote :)  It’s been a crazy year, but 2014 will probably be crazier with new cosplays and all ^^

Seriously, thank you so much for all of the support with my cosplay and everything else I do.  I never expected all of this.  I never expected to have followers who wanted to meet me, or who decided to cosplay because of me, and just… it’s been kind of surreal, and I still don’t quite know how to react except to just keep smiling  :)

So here’s to more plus sized cosplay, more black girl geekery, more of me and my wifey going to cons and advertising our art and our book, and just… here’s to all of that.

Cheers to 2014!

The Princess Peach cosplay is being reblogged again I’m randomly getting notifications <3  *waves to new people*

So asieybarbie did some fantastic Princess Peach fanart, so I did my hair and took some pictures in my Peach dress  <3  If you haven’t see her art yet, go and check it out, it’s really, really amazing  :)

Asieybarbie’s page:  Here! or Here!

Have some Holiday Princess Tiana cosplay  <3  Will most likely take better pictures later once we have snow and stuff, or a tree or something.  I didn’t wear it for very long because the con hotel was pretty warm, but we did at least get this picture  :)

That one time we were at Daisho Con and J. Michael Tatum spazzed over our Disney Princess cosplay and asked for a picture with us  <3  

More Daisho pictures to come, most are on my wifey’s camera, including me with my Lottie, and my wifey working my Belle dress.  OMG you guys we got stopped SO MUCH and I ran into people who were fans of me and I couldn’t believe it at all and just EVERYONE AT THIS CON HAS BEEN SO WONDERFUL THAT I HAVE TO USE ALL CAPS.

And to top it all off I get to end this weekend with a bunch of Persona announcements AND picking my mama up from the airport on the way home for her week vacation with us for Thanksgiving OMG WHY IS LIFE SO PERFECT RIGHT NOW?!

Happy Saturday, everyone. Today is Tiana day and we may have found some other princesses along the way, huzzah!  Yesterday was this holiday festive version of Peach  <3

Friday at Daisho was great. It is a bit strange being able to just walk around and not sit at a table, but it’s been a lot of fun. The really cool thing that’s been happening that I wasn’t expecting was people recognizing me from the article I wrote and who follow me here and on tumblr O.O That’s really incredible! Like I got some, “I recognize you from this article you wrote” and some “Hey is this you” and “omg I know you from the internet” and… yeah. Wow <3 

I also was really incredibly super brave and not awkward (was totally awkward) because I gave J. Michael Tatum a Grell clock I made because he likes Grell. I did it all by myself like a big kid and was all ready to walk away forever but then he asked for a picture and called me gorgeous in my Peach cosplay and everything is a blur after that. But I did it alone so yay me!

More con pictures coming soon, you know, once I’m more coherent and stuff. 

I decided to share the album of pictures, which also comes with a story about the day in the life of Cecil Baldwin  :)

So my wifey and I are going to be Cecil and Carlos from Welcome to Night Vale for our Halloween party this weekend. Originally, she was going to be Cecil and I was going to be Carlos. But we couldn’t find anything that worked for me in regards to Carlos (no lab coat that fit, no cute flannel shirt that fit, ect.) So, we switched! I’m going to be Cecil now and I’ll get to obsess over Carlos. Perfect, beautiful Carlos. 

Here’s a test picture. I’ll be doing make up and things on Saturday and will take better pictures  :)

This is exactly why I shouldn’t wander around at cons I should just stay behind the table otherwise I take too many silly pictures  ^^;;;

Oh snap I saw the activity jump on my Peach cosplay again.  Then I noticed someone reblogging it with some pretty terrible remarks about my weight. I guess I should come clean, guys.  I’m fat.  In case you weren’t aware this kind tumblr user has taken the time to remind everyone. Thanks for comparing me to both Precious and a whale all at once.  Because it’s so insulting to be compared to a good actress and a cute sea animal.
